Pianos ~ Indicators.

A gentleman recently from Mason
Valley, speaking of the prosperous
conditions of the ranchers of that
place, mentioned that they were all
buying pianos. In commercial centers
the stock lists and market reports are
indicators of the condition of trade.
In mining camps the bullion output
the assessment lists, faro games and
saloons show that money Is plenty and
that times are good. Any stranger can
tell at once by looking around town at
night, whether mining camp is pros

The Nevada.

A cross-cnt WAS run across the ledge
OF the Nevada last week The wall is
very smooth and distinct and SEQ
foot drift has been begun which will
have this wall for one of its sides.
The Nevada ledge Is large and of good
grade and will probably be worked
for some time without interruption.
Several parties have been negotiating
with the owners, with purchase in
view, and il is probable that saLsiac-
tory terms will soon be concluded with

For some time the Silver Lining
mine has shown itself to be one of the
most promising properties in the
county, and citizens of Aurora have
felt that the camp would have re-
newal of lively times, through the
out put of ore from the mine. The
past was however only hint Of what
is now, and what will be. A long de.
lay in work was caused by the peoes
sity of running tunnel for the sake
of more economic working. This
tunnel was run along the ledge some
distance under the old workings and
in its progress. developed ap exceed.
ingly fine body Of ore OF great extent.
Last week the connection was made
between the workings and everything
will soon be ready for active oper-
atoms. At the end of the tunnel, the
ore is of a superior quality, and a
winze, which, when last heard from,
was down twelve feet was in good
ore all the way. Since the tunnel be.
gan there has been to the present time
constant improvement and the al
most unexpected addition to their
available ore assets is very gratifying
to the managers. There is a large
quantity of good ore IN the old works,
and the large deposit developed by
the tunnel assures many dividends to
the stock. holders,

the government has at last defined its position
in regard to the agitation now going on in con-
nection with the commercial union movement
In the course of his remarks at public ban
quet rendered him at Montreal on his return
from France. Mr.. Chapleau, on behalf Of the
government, said:
Commercial unity is an idea which can never
prevail in Canada. It is impossible in its pres
ent premature state. II started in this brain of
a gentleman who having made large fortune
in the States. now seeks notoriety AZ the father
of this movement. It could not succeed. be-
cause it would destroy our Canadian industrieG
and our Canadian nationality. It held ont de-
lusive hopes to the agriculturist. and while
believe Canadians do not desire it, feel salts
fed Americans will not have it. There was
nobody in the UEited States who would em.
brace the idea of commercial union unless they
thought is meant political union as well. Such
political union would wipe out forever all hopes
and aspirations of the people for q Canadian
nationality. and would deprive them Of all tbs
blessings they now enjoy"

CHICAGO, Oct. 16-The career OF Mrs. Raw.
son, the young mans mother is, in many
respects. remarkable. She has been mar.
ried several times, was divorced once. and as a
department clerk in the government service a.
Washngtonis is understood to have been concerned
in some decidedly sensational incidents. It
was as the possessor OF considerable real estate
in Chicago that she first became acquainted with

physically a wreck. Whatever the cause OF
their disputes. the matter finally went to the
ssa,,. courts On 1o,. Sept e. ,; 1885, Mrs
gal separation from her husband was filed.
The allegations were cruelty and refusal
of her husband to support her. closing with .
recital of how he had installed detectives in
their home to close it up when Mrs. Rawson
sh ould leave it. Rawson had, in the meantime,
left the house and taken up his abode with .
friend. In his answer to the bill Rawson
averred that his married life had been terrible
and continual drama of domestic calamity and
wretchedness, the sole cause OF which was his
wife's phenomenally awful. deviish and wicked
temper and habits OF profanity and blasphemy,
which were NOT revealed TO him until after his
marriage. Going into her histors. Rawson de-
clared that his wife had made false representa-
tions to him to get him to marry her
when she represented that she was the widow Of
Charles G. Lee. who left her comfortably of
and the mother of two children. He further
testified that his wife was married in New Or
leans. on April 3, 1866, to John G. Slavmaker,
who, at the time the bill was filed, was living in
Arkadelphia. Ark, and the divorce obtained
from Slavmaker, few years later. was illegal:
consequently the marriage with defendant
should be declared void. On Aug. 5. 1856, he
refused to place any more money to her credit
at bank. and on Sept. 20 she was refused admit
tance to his house. and detectives left
guard to prevent her gaining entrance
While the suit was pending porter on q st.
Louis sleepingcar testified that MIRA RAwsou
had occupied berth with a strange man on his
sleeper. This story was partially corroborated
by other porters and car-conductors All these
allegations were emphaticaly denied by Mrs
Rawson, and later the colored porter
brought up before Justice Lyon on the charge OF
perjury, when he acknowledged the untruthful-
ness of his former statements. Since then every
point. especially in the matter of alimony. has
been contested with increased bitterness, the
elimination being Rawson's additional charges
and todayis horrible tragedy.
